Shadow the Hedgehog was one of the fastest cops in Station Square and he has caught the most wanted criminals in the town. Mostly when he arrests them, he does it alone when he doesn't need backup a few times. Let's see how he's doing now.
"Hold it right there! Get over here!" Shadow yelled while chasing criminals stealing a bank truck. Then one of the criminals takes out a UZI.
"Get this!" the thug shouted and fires at Shadow.
But Shadow dodged the bullets and ran faster to get to the truck. The thug got back in to reload his gun.
"Did you get him?" the driver asked.
"No. He's gone" the thug said. But then Shadow suddenly grabs the thug and threw him at the parasol in the Café. He got in and sees 3 more thugs inside.
"Bring it!" Shadow said and cracks his knuckles. The thugs but the driver attacks Shadow and they only managed to give him a black eye and punched his gut. While fighting the thugs, Shadow saw that a grey colored hedgehog running over their way, causing the driver to make the truck turn wildly to the side.
The grey hedgehog ran away in the alley to get away from the situation and to make sure Shadow doesn't get him.
"Oh god! That was close" he said and sees a blue violet colored hedgehog girl.
"Are you alright little bro?" she asked him.
"Yes, I was almost run over by a truck but I'm fine, Nebula" he said to her.
"Silver, you're 14 years old and it's way too dangerous" Nebula said very concerned.

Inside the truck, Shadow has knocked down two thugs and was fighting one to not knock out the driver. He blocked his punches and hits the thug with an uppercut. He then pulled the thug's mask off to reveal a green hawk.
"Jet the Hawk. Remember me?" Shadow smirked.
"Grrrrr! You are in my way for my money!" Jet snarled.
"No, you greedy hawk! You are going in again!" Shadow said and cuffs him. Then he goes up to the driver while keeping his balance.
"Hey you! Stop the truck or you'll be in trouble!" Shadow held his gun out. The driver gulps in defeat and hardly presses the brakes. The truck stopped as Shadow threw all four out from the truck.
"Grrr! You may have won this time, badass cop! But I will get out of jail! You just watch!" Jet yelled, struggling to get the cuffs off.
"Try that and I get you again" Shadow grinned. He then dials his fellow cops to get Jet and his thugs.
"Bring a van here, I got Jet again" Shadow said.
"On our way Shadow" the police woman on the phone said.
"I'm at the park with them" Shadow added, looking at Jet and the thugs. Then Shadow wondered if the grey hedgehog is alright or not, but he shrugs and doesn't know where to find him.
"Where ever he is, I hope his family is not worried" Shadow thought.
At an abandoned apartment Silver and Nebula were having dinner.
"Man, I hate being the most wanted thief" Nebula said, looking at the wanted poster of her face.
"Nebula, don't worry. I know how you feel. You are afraid for that badass cop?" Silver asked.
Nebula nods a little, "Yeah. And I'm not like any other criminal. I steal things that we need to survive" she said.
"True. It's like we're becoming wild in the city" Silver said, having his roasted chicken.
"Yup. I'm gonna go out there and find anything to keep us warm. It's gonna be a cold night for us" Nebula said, finishing her dinner.
"Okay, be careful out there" Silver said, watching Nebula leave through the window. She climbs down the ladder and puts on her mask to conceal her identity.
At the police station, Shadow was at the training room punching the punching bag. He wore red shorts and grey nike sneakers.
He punches the bag hard and was sweating a lot, but he has to keep himself in form. After a few punches, he goes to a bench to rest some and have some water.
"So you kicked Jet's ass again, huh?" the blue hedgehog walking up to him.
"Yes I did. Along with his friends too" Shadow said, wiping the sweat with a towel.
"Wow, you really are a one badass cop. Do you ever have a partner?" the blue hedgehog asked.
"No and I never will have a partner. I work alone, Sonic" Shadow glared at Sonic.
Sonic sighs and rubs his eyes.
"Shadow, that's so selfish to say that" Sonic said.
"I am not. I only need help when I need it" Shadow said.
"Oh, right. Sooner or later some criminal or a backstabber will take you down" Sonic said with his arms crossed.
"Hmph! No one defeats me, Sonic. I never lose against criminals" Shadow glared again.
"Oh, really? Have you ever caught this wanted thief before?" Sonic showed the wanted poster of a violet-blue female hedgehog, "I guess not" he chuckled.
"Her? Oh yes, I haven't thought of getting her locked in" Shadow said, looking at the poster.
"She is very hard to find. So be careful out there" Sonic said.
"I'm always careful" Shadow scoffs. He walks out the training room to get into his uniform.
"I bet he won't fight against a girl" Sonic thought.
Late at night, Nebula was sneaking in the back side of Walt-Mart without getting caught. Few workers were unloading the boxes of supplies and stuff for the store where everyone can buy stuff in the aisle.
"Okay. I need more toothpaste for my little bro and myself. And something fluffy and cozy to sleep. Here I go" Nebula said, quietly going into the trailer truck to find some stuff that she needs.
She then hides when a worker carried a TV from the truck, not seeing her. She exhales for relief and sees a warm blanket from the crate. She carefully takes it out without being noticed and hides again when a worker came to get another crate.
Nebula then sneaks to the box of toothpaste and tiptoes to it once the worker has left. She reaches out for it and takes one. Before she puts it in her bag, she looks up to see that the workers go to have a coffee break.
"Perfect, now I need to make sure they don't see me" Nebula said.
She steps out from the truck and ran to the alley, hiding behind a dumpster.
"Phew, that was close. But I better watch out for Shadow. He's the most badass cop in town" Nebula said to herself.
Unknown to her. Shadow was looking around for her with his cuffs and gun ready.
"I wonder where she could be" Shadow said to himself.
Nebula is about to get back home when she saw Shadow, she then hides again in an empty dumpster. Shadow heard it and goes to the alley to see where the noise came from.
"Hello? Anyone there?" He walks past the dumpster where Nebula is inside.
Nebula peeks a bit from the lid and saw him pass her. Then she sees him look at something else moving. Shadow walks up to it instead and sees a stray cat holding a fish in its mouth.
"Oh, man. Just a stupid cat. Come here you and I get you to your-…AHHH!" He tried to pick it up but it scratches him in the face.
"ARGH! OW! OW!" Shadow screamed. Nebula then saw her chance and ran away but accidently dropped her purple nebulae pattern flower hair clip on the ground and she didn't notice it.
The cat hissed angrily and ran off with its fish.
"Sheesh! If you want to be pissed off, do it somewhere else" Shadow growled at the street cat and walks away.
But then he notices something on the ground, Nebula's hair clip.
"Hmmm, what's this" He picked it up and examines it, "It must be the wanted thief. Just wait until I get you" He grinned.
Sometimes it makes me sad to see homeless children on the streets with no food, no home, and no family. :(
